Reminds us of one of the most valuable lessons Jerry taught us ... Every day is a great day.
Thanks for sharing.

She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

Kami (Mackenzie's Mom)
My sweet golden Mackenzie. She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2 although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home. She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009. She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes. I love you Mackenzie!

When did you last try? We did have some issues with the browse button not working, but other members have confirmed our fix worked. If you're having different trouble, keep in mind the image needs to be at least 128x128 in size, no smaller, but a very large image may make the upload choke.
